[OpenIndiana-discuss] problem with login password

[Michelle Knight]

I don't think the live cd would have changed your password unless you re-
installed OI.

Try typing the password in the user name screen to make sure the keyboard is 
working properly and that the letters you type, are coming out right. Also 
watch for your Caps Lock being on or off whenever you type a password.

If the password is right, then one suggestion is to try deliberately putting 
the caps lock on and trying again ... as maybe it was accidentally pressed 
when you created the password.
